The Road Not Taken from Hiller Aviation Museum | The Quest for the Supersonic Transport | For some three quarters of a century, the development of powered flight was characterized by the relentless pursuit of speed.

In the First World War airplanes that we today would call fighters were instead known as “pursuit” planes to emphasize their ability to overtake slower aircraft in flight....

Aviation Trivia of the Day by JP Santiago - One of the toughest targets in North Vietnam during the long war there was the Thanh Hoa Bridge over the Song Ma River. The bridge was a massive steel truss and concrete structure that carried a railroad down the center and a two lane road way on each side and was a major supply choke point from Hanoi and the harbor of Haiphong. Crossing the river at its narrowest point, sharp limestone ridges on each side gave it the nickname Ham Rong, or "Dragon's Jaw" as the American pilots referred to it. Because of its strategic nature on the supply route to the battlefields along the DMZ and to the Viet Cong in South Vietnam, the Thanh Hoa Bridge was a significant target and was recognized as such by the North Vietnamese who protected the area with some of the densest antiaircraft defenses outside of Hanoi and Haiphong…
